    We are attacking the defense more as well. Wallace has taken it to the chest of the defense a few times. The team in the first half wasn't "seeking contact"

    TurtleBlazers! This team acts like they are just happy to here. No testicular fortitude. Batum and Mathews act too young and that they will have many more opportunities. Rudy just too Euro. Camby and Dre too old. Crash just acts content to be the FNG. BRoy and Lma are the only ones who act like they are embarrassed by being erased the last two years. No urgency. We pissed away a golden opportunity and rendered Roys last game heroics just an ironic footnote.

    Wonder why Nate didn't go to the big lineup in the second half. Shoulda put CJ in for Camby, insted of Roy in the third quarter.

    This loss is on Aldridge. When did he decide to play like it was 2008 again?

    Yeah, but it's not a terminal tumor. Who else just said that as Arnold?

    What's more disturbing is why Wallace has been unable to get going. Is it the foul trouble?

    Because the refs aren't calling it tight on Portland any longer.

    why the hell would you foul someone like that, late in the game, when your team is going to win?

    That's pretty stupid.

    I'd like to see one of our scrubs go get a flagrant foul. It's playoff basketball and you just got embarrassed. Time to put some blood on the floor. Actually, that time was in the third quarter, but better late than never.

    When Roy became "The Man" again after game 4. Not Roy's fault at all, it's something in LA's head

    What's made this loss even more painful was having to listen to the Mavs announcers on NBATV.

    I think we need GW more
    he need to attack more
    he style easily to get foul
    and then we can see LA is cold
    so we need gw
